    After making up his mind, Shen Cong touched the dragon corpse again.

    "Thank you for your blessing. If I have free time in the future, I will find the culprit for you. You should have been promoted to the Dragon Clan and live the same life as the heavens and the earth."

    Having said that, Shen Cong stood up and lifted the corpse, then stepped out, passed through the sudden golden halo, and returned to his mansion.

    It was muggy at night, and there seemed to be heavy rain the next day.

    Taking off his robe, Shen Cong walked into the hot spring in the back hall, and sat down leisurely.

    He was not idle either. While sitting down to soak in the hot spring, he used his spiritual consciousness to activate the spell to refine the Ninth Grade Gain Pill.

    An hour later, Shen Cong slowly opened his eyes, and stretched out his hand to grab the void.

    A golden light appeared in the palm of his hand, and suddenly turned into a drop of liquid.

    This is the refined Ninth Rank Gain Pill.

    He held it in the palm of his hand, and the liquid slowly melted into his body, and the spiritual power suddenly surged through his tendons, extremely violently.

    Some confusion.

    Shen Cong closed his eyes and concentrated on absorbing spiritual power.

    An hour later, the clean hot spring water turned into a foul-smelling black.  The essence is flowing, and it was washed outside after a while.

    Shen Cong slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and a little tired.

    Building the foundation, double the natural formation.

    Standing up and putting on his long robe, Shen Cong ordered the guards serving him to change into a basin of cold ice, and when he felt cooler, he lay down on the bed and went to sleep.

    The lights of Prince Qin's Mansion gradually dimmed, and it became quiet along with Chang'an City.  In the middle of the night, there is a mansion lighting lamps, and it still wants to stay up all night.

    East of the city, Dingguohou Mansion.

    In the hall, a family sat around a pear wood round table, toasting and drinking, it was very lively.

    The middle-aged man sitting in the main seat was dressed in battle armor and was full of dust.  The battle armor is full of scratches of different shades. Under the candlelight, these scratches seem to bring the breath of the battlefield back to Chang'an, full of chills.

    The man's hair was slightly disheveled, and there was an unhealed scar on his forehead.  Even with such an appearance, the majesty between the man's eyebrows still remains undiminished.

    When he glanced at a young man in brocade clothes next to him, there was a look of kindness in his majestic eyes.

    This man is Gu Yuanjia, Marquis of Dingguo.

    Sitting next to him is the elder brother in brocade clothes, the prince of Dingguo, Gu Jiuling.

    When Dingguohou was young, it happened to be the founding of the Celestial Dynasty, so he helped it to overthrow the decadent regime of Ming Dynasty.  Then follow the current crusades in the four directions, pacify the Central Plains, stabilize the celestial dynasty, and lead the army to conquer the north and south according to the emperor's imperial decree.

    The Gu family is a family through the ages, belonging to the family of loyalty.  According to their family motto, the Gu family is only loyal to the Central Plains, and the dynasty has nothing to do with them.  Whoever establishes a dynasty in the Central Plains and wants to bring peace and prosperity, after the Gu family has chosen that emperor, they will help him.

    In this generation, the Gu family chose Shen Yunqing and gave up the decadent Ming Dynasty, so they have the current Marquis of Dingguo.

    Gu Jiuling is the only seedling in the direct line of this generation. He is deeply loved by the Gu family and has been asked to be the son of the world early.

    ?But love is love, Gu Yuanjia personally taught Gu Jiuling the art of war and martial arts when he was young.  Gu Jiuling was brought to the battlefield when he was young. He had never participated in the battle, but he witnessed the soldiers counting on the battlefield and witnessed the battle between the two armies.

    Such spectacular scenes naturally aroused Gu Jiuling's ambition to serve the country and join the army to kill the enemy.

    So at the age of thirteen, Gu Jiuling led the army in the first battle of the Northern Expedition. He used 500 soldiers and horses to wipe out 3,000 Turkic hussars, went deep into the desert, captured the Turkic prince, and returned to the court with his head.

    The emperor Longyan was very happy, and he directly called him the Tiger General of Bihuo Qubing Weiqing.  Immediately rewarded a thousand taels of gold and a hundred hectares of fertile land.

    Since then, the name of the little God of War has become famous in the heavens.

    In just two years, Gu Jiuling's military exploits have already reached less than half that of Marquis Dingguo.

    Not long ago, Prince Shen Yu was sent to the southern border to guard the frontier to fight against Dali, and Dingguohou and his son were also sent to the northern border by Qi Qi to expel the Turkic barbarians who would harass the people.

    After driving out the Turks, they fought with the new generals and returned to the court according to the order.

    Just rushed back to Chang'an today, and it coincided with the begging festival, the emperor allowed him to rest and bathe, so they drank and chatted all night.

    It is said that it is a family feast, but in fact, the Dingguo Houfu generally has two masters, Gu Yuanjia and Gu Jiuling.  The rest were referred to as subordinates, and they did not want to bother them, so they took a break early.

    "An Xian will be one year younger, and it will be the 28th. In the 28th year, it's time to have a marriage." Another bowl of strong wine fell into his throat. Gu Yuanjia waved away the servants who were serving him, grabbed Gu Jiuling's hand, and clapped  Clap your hands on the back, "Dad??You have a big gift.  "

    Gu Jiuling's cold eyes slowly fell on Gu Yuanjia's rough and wide palm.

    He had never spoken to himself so affectionately.

    "General, you are drunk." Gu Jiuling withdrew his hand and shook the gold cup in his hand.

    It was bestowed by the emperor, and his stingy old man never used it.

    Which muscle is wrong today?

    "Dad said that outside he only talks about generals and ministers, but inside he can talk about father and son. Call Dad to listen, and I haven't heard it for three or two years." Gu Yuanjia looked at Gu Jiuling with piercing eyes.

    "Dad." Gu Jiuling still called out obediently.

    "Hey, my father will take you to the library and give you a good treasure." Gu Yuanjia suddenly smiled, even the fine lines around his eyes.

    He pulled Gu Jiuling up and walked out of the hall.

    Seeing Gu Yuanjia's tall back with unconcealable joy, Gu Jiuling couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

    However, his expression was quietly dazed.

    It's been a long time since the old man treated me so kindly.  The last time it was like this, it seemed that he was still in his infancy.

    For some reason, Gu Jiuling felt a little drowsy.

    It's probably because of the drunkenness.

    Speaking of which, the old man still opened the spirits that he had collected for decades today.

    It's really strange.

    Gu Jiuling was so absorbed in thinking about her father's various actions today, she never paid attention to the eaves above the mansion, and a figure was already quietly lurking.

    He didn't even notice that Gu Yuanjia was drunk in front of him.

    He tightly pursed the corners of his lips, his eyes were unprecedentedly deep.

    Dingguo Hou Mansion was surprisingly quiet that night.

    Shen Cong was woken up by the noise outside the palace.

    He is a cultivator and has practiced martial arts since he was a child. His five senses are a hundred times more sensitive than ordinary people.

    ?He is resting for a bath today, and it coincides with a thunderstorm, so he doesn't need to go to the yamen to work.

    Yawning, Shen Cong got up, washed and dressed casually, took a fruit from the yard, gnawed it while holding an oil-paper umbrella, and walked towards the gate of the palace.

    Go out and sell some wine, and then go to Manxianglou to see the new oiran.

    Well, good day.

    Far away, Shen Cong caught a faint scent of blood.

    Landing at the gate of the mansion, Shen Cong glanced at the old man standing at the gate of the mansion, stretching his neck and looking east, and opened his lips lightly: "Old Liu, hasn't your old lady returned home to take care of her grandson?" Who is he waiting for here?  .

    The old man named Lao Liu froze when he heard Shen Cong's voice.  Turning her head and bowing to him, she said with a sneering smile, "Qi Ye woke up early enough."

    "What happened outside?" Shen Cong frowned.

    The closer to the street, the stronger the smell of blood.

    "Master, Dingguo Hou's Mansion was wiped out yesterday.?¡­
